Gurjar in his letter stated that people across the country are badly hit by inflation.

Congress MLA said that the previous Congress government had opposed every step of the current government from nationalisation to privatisation, calling it a threat to the future of the country and even today the Congress is terming it a weapon to collect money, which is proved right. It is happening and the money mobilisation policy of the Central and State Governments is a serious blow to the national interests.

Gurjar has requested in the letter that the decision of the Central Government to move from nationalisation to privatisation is proving harmful to the people.

Gurjar, taking deep concern over the rising prices, has demanded in the public interest that the Central and State Governments should take appropriate steps to immediately stop the rising prices so that the common man can get relief from the ever-increasing inflation. Congress will launch a fierce agitation.
